A Guide to guitars for beginners

The most important thing in looking for a guitar is trying a few out. If you can go to some shops that is perfect. Even better if you can take someone who can play if you are a total beginner. They can help you hear the difference between the guitars.

Always add between £40- £60 for a professional luthier to “set up” your guitar. Most guitars come out of the factors with a high action (the height between the fretboard and the strings) which is often difficult to play and can put off most learners.

Find something that feels right for you. It’s a bit mystical but sometimes your guitar will find you as much as you find it.
